I only want him gone if its a package deal with our AD.

But our AD agreed to a deal that will guarantee we're stuck with Bert for a long, long time.

I can't believe I'm going to torture myself at the Aggie game next week.

If y'all see some sloshed chic with a $10 beer in each hand, sulking...... Good chance it will be me.

Well anyone in Fay can tell you Bielema spent 90% of it at the bar. I've sat next to him at Theo's more than once personally

That and his bachelor pad on Dickson when he gets too hammered to drive home. There is 100% of his time accounted for


I've heard the same. I've also heard from some people who would know that Bert has an assistant/GA whose job is basically to follow him to and at the bar and ensure he doesn't make a complete arse of himself.

So that means our supposed baller AD has now hired three football coaches, one of whom was a womanizer, one of whom had an enormous bankruptcy case against him, and one who is apparently a slovenly functioning alcoholic. #Uncommon indeed!

The bad thing is that if/when we finally pull the plug on Jabba the Bert, I now have no faith in Long to hire a replacement.

So we lost a -21 and a -10 favored games this year so far

Dumpster fire


This is 2012 all over again. Ton of returning talent, hype and ranking coming into into the season, we piss it away with a loss to a non-P5 team in Little Rock, injuries mount and it slides downhill from there.

However, unlike 2012, I don't have the optimism knowing that we're getting a new coach at the end of the year to get me through.

Yep. I feel the same about Long at this point in regards to his hiring capabilities

Alice needs to hold off a couple months on buying us a rare painting and use the money to clean house in the athletic department.

Damn good point

I should have listened to my brother (boss) who's said since we hired Bert that he looked like our ex shady trashy sloppy sales guy we used to have.

Yep.

I've been an outspoken supporter of Long for a long time, and I stood by him during and after Harletgate, but I'm fricking done. He doesn't know shite about the SEC and hired a coach who didnt either, and he locked us into a colossal contract with said coach who's now 11-17, 2-14 and has won a total of 1 (!) road game in 2.5 years. Frick you, Long, for locking us into this stupid contract after 2 anomalous wins versus injury-riddled teams at home.

Our only hope is that Ferentz shits the bed this year and Iowa finally cuts bait and is willing to take Bert, but even then I'm afraid his stock will have fallen too much. He's made losing in the SEC an art form, and he's the epitome of the fact that the SEC is in a completely different stratosphere than the Big Ten.

My new second favorite team is now whoever is playing Iowa. Fly home, Bert!

Good melt Feral. I feel the same way. Bielema is like the kid in school who was the best trash talker but would never back it up. It's disappointing for sure

I'm completely numb right now can't even melt as bad as I want to. Wait all fricking year for football season and this is the shite we get to watch? What the hell have we done to deserve this shite? So sick of having to feel soulless during my favorite time of the year with absolutely no hope for the future.

I wonder if Bert realizes how abruptly his honeymoon just came to an end. I have a feeling his nights at the bar could be much less enjoyable now
